- Retainers
Orthodontic retainers help maintain beautiful, lifelong smiles. They are essential to orthodontic after care. Following any orthodontic treatment, it is important to preserve and protect the results you’ve achieved with one of our retainer solutions. Your teeth will naturally shift back to their original position after straightening without consistent retainer usage. That’s why we work with every patient to determine the best retainer solution for their individual lifestyle.

- Enamel Therapy
Enamel therapy is designed to address functional and esthetic concerns related to white spot lesions.
